First Microfinance Bank

Microfinance (Social)

First Microfinance Bank (FMFB) in Tajikistan is a very socially-driven bank. No other bank or microfinance institution is as active in the eastern, mountainous part of the country as FMFB. Although only 3% of the population of Tajikistan lives in the eastern part, they account for 20% of the loan portfolio of FMFB. Triodos Microfinance Fund has provided a loan to FMFB to realise further growth of its loan portfolio.

Microfinance

Whoever you are, and wherever you live in the world, you are likely to want permanent access to financial services. Microfinance banks play a crucial role providing access to finance to an increasing number of people living on low-incomes. We finance microfinance institutions because they help to build inclusive financial sectors, where the majority of people have access to financial services, leading to a sustainable basis for balanced social and economic development.
